All of us are caught up in a spiritual battle between God and the devil. It is a battle that most people don't think much about and yet God tells us to "be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power (Ephesians 6:10). In Sunday's message, Senior Pastor Mike Newman is going to talk about the battle we face and how to FIGHT to win the battle with the power and resources God provides.

John Michael Hinton will also be joining us for a few minutes in all of morning worship services. He will give us a preview of what he will be sharing with us on Sunday evening at 6 p.m. For more information about John Michael Hinton and to purchase tickets for Sunday evening, check out the information below.

SPEAKER | ILLUSIONIST | REDHEAD

John is best known for his energetic, passionate, and dynamic style when
speaking before crowds. He weaves the power of Scripture, story and humor
to communicate challenging, life-changing messages. His unique style of close-up magic for the stage uses everyday objects to accomplish impossible feats. Using a live video feed, every audience member is transported onto the stage just inches away from the mystery. Driven by a passion to encourage people to embrace joy and find purpose, he uses the power of illusion, storytelling and humor in a mix that you won't soon forget.

Welcome to Otterbein

We know going to church for the first time can be a
little awkward and even scary—especially if you don’t know anyone. We
want to assure you that we will do everything we can to make your visit
with us a positive one. We encourage you to stop at GUEST CENTRAL in the
church lobby where a helpful volunteer will
answer questions you have and provide an overview of our church
programs. Greeters and ushers are available to answer
questions you might have. Directional signs will point you toward our
nursery, classrooms and worship center. We welcome guests, and
our church wants to help you have a good first-time experience.

practical messages

We understand that one of the biggest criticisms of the church is that
the sermons are boring and not very helpful. Our pastors try very hard
to make sure that the sermons don’t just teach about the Bible, but that
they also talk about how to put into practice what the Bible says. We
use various forms of media to help explain the Bible, and outlines of
the messages are provided every week so you can take notes and think
more about the teaching in the messages after you leave the church.
